Gurumahan describes the practice of calming the mind through breath awareness and becoming receptive to cosmic energy.

As the breath becomes slower, the waves of the mind also become calm. Where there is no breath, there is no mind. The Thirumandiram teaches this truth: where the mind exists, breath exists; where the mind is absent, breath is absent.
One way to steady and quiet the mind is through mantra chanting. However, when the mind becomes pure and stable, there is no need to chant mantras or control the breath. The key practice is to observe the natural breath. Without forcing inhalation or exhalation, we simply watch the breath as it flows on its own.
As we continue this observation, the breath gradually becomes subtle and turns inward. The movement of the breath reflects the movement of life itself. When the breath reaches a state of stillness, awareness moves closer to the life-force. By steadily observing the breath, the mind approaches a breathless state, where the mind and life-force unite.
When the mind goes beyond the senses and enters a state beyond thought, the brain opens to receive cosmic energy. This is why the experience is called the opening of the inner eye or the crown eye. At that moment, cosmic energy flows inward and spreads throughout the body, filling it with extraordinary power.
